Zayn Malik's collaboration with Sia, "Dusk Till Dawn," sounds just as huge and intense as the cinematic music video that accompanies it — and that's probably why this simple video that he posted of himself singing a line from the song is so captivating.

Shortly following the release of his latest single, Zayn took to Twitter to riff a little bit on the track. You can't even tell it's "Dusk Till Dawn" at first, but eventually the romantic lines of it sound a familiar as he works his way through its first verse.

Though it's unclear as to whether or not "Dusk Till Dawn" is the first single from Zayn's forthcoming sophomore album — the "optimistic" and "organized" follow-up to his 2016 breakthrough, Mind of Mine — or a one-off pairing of two pop greats, it's great to hear his voice again, and especially in such a raw format.

This minute of an impromptu serenade his the ear as an intimate thank you from Zayn to his fans for their support — and hopefully there'll be more music to celebrate from him soon enough.
